Subversive Mathematics
Subversive Mathematics is about the Argentinian Dirty War of the 1970s, the subsequent outlawing of Venn diagrams, and the disappearing of people and ideas. Can ideas be unthought through the sheer force of a government’s will? Is logic subversive? Can harmony be restored by removing all traces of an offending person or material? How far should you go to preserve power if you believe the future of your country is at stake?
This project is still in progress. I will add a video of the Zoom-only performance taking place on June 23, 2024 after I perform it.
